That got much better when the game switched to using short, single sentences.\r\rI was expecting the final choice, and rather than being predictable, I was actually relieved when I got that choice. I think you played very well with the timing.\r\rOne thing that was a bit confusing in the beginning is that in many places "next" should actually be "think". In some pages you had a choice between "do something" and "next", and it was confusing what "next" was in relation to the "do something" action.\r\rAll in all I enjoyed the game a lot, thanks for it!"},{"author_name":"kibertoad","author_uid":"7122","time":"Dec 25, 2013 @ 2:03pm","epoch":1387979880,"text":"it would be much better with actual random element, but the writing is seriously one of the best at this ludum. aside from obligatory mentions of loved ones. they kinda kill the immersion. when facing imminent death, people tend to be a bit more self-centered in my experience."},{"author_name":"Xanjos","author_uid":"21201","time":"Dec 25, 2013 @ 2:32pm","epoch":1387981620,"text":"I enjoyed playing this game.

That was pretty darn ambient.\r\rA simple but intense story that fits the theme well. It's definitely a situation I never hope to be in. Pretty long and deep for 48 hours. The writing is pretty good: a couple of sentences felt a bit melodramatic or clumsy, but the majority of this game is well-written. I like the font choice.\r\rTypoes: at one point, you have "dam" instead of "damn"; "asI" should be two words; "beasts claws" should be "beast's claws".\r\rI don't really have any other nitpicks. There's a nice balance between powerlessness and choice, and the entire thing is very powerful.\r\r\rSPOILER\r\rI like how the ending credits gave the option of seeing the other ending without having to replace the entire thing."},{"author_name":"jfroco","author_uid":"2085","time":"Jan 6, 2014 @ 1:47am","epoch":1388972520,"text":"I don't usually play this kind of games, but yours made me play throughout.
